A simple package for rendering a string using modern opengl. Based on the bounding box of a string, positioning of the string on screen prior to rendering is possible. There do seem to be issues with the dimensions reported by freetype-go unfortunately.
- Unicode support.
- Dynamic text zooming along the z-axis.
- Dynamic text positioning within the orthographic projection space.
- Dynamic color changes.
Unicode support is based on the underlying truetype font being used (or bitmap).
- go get github.com/4ydx/gltext
- Provided using Japanese text.
